That's called colour blindness and is a medical condition.Some people have exquisite taste.
I'm starting to wish that the link remained broken now. My poor eyes.
Yeah, I went back and was confused why anybody would customize a PT Loser.
Ooh don't let Galantti see you directly bad mouthing the Poo Turd Cruiser. Er, I mean... Remember, he used to me mister PT Cruiser here. For some reason.
Interesting thing about these, they were one of four cousin cars from GM, all based on the Chevrolet Nova. All named to create this effect:
N ova (Chevrolet)
O mega (Oldsmobile)
V entura (Pontiac)
A pollo (Buick)
There's also the Acadian Beaumont and Canso, but those were only sold in Canada.Interesting thing about these, they were one of four cousin cars from GM, all based on the Chevrolet Nova. All named to create this effect:

Spotted this 1973/74 Pontiac Ventura today at the hardware store. Not perfect, but that's the way I like them.

I like these odd-ball GM clones as they are fair bit more rare and usually styled a little better (not that the Nova was ugly).
Edit: Upon further reflection, the 1965 model Nova was actually uglier than it's 1962-1964 brethren. And no one make a fiberglass hood for the 1965.
While I was on a short (83 km) bike ride I spotted this Volvo PV 445, the station wagon version of the PV544.
